Who doesn’t want a little sweet talk?
Leif Lively is the hottest thing to happen to Magnolia Bend. But single mother Abigail Orgeron figures he’s another heartbreaker and does her best to ignore the steamy glances he tosses her way. When he speaks, though, her resistance crumbles! His sweet words, humor and laid-back ways captivate buttoned-up Abigail.
For once, losing control feels so good, and this no-strings arrangement is getting serious. What will she do when Leif solves the family mystery that brought him to town and decides to leave? Because she’s learning that the biggest love means taking the biggest risk…
“I’m surprised to see you here.”
Leif’s smile reached his eyes. “But I’m glad you came.”
If only.
Warmth dripped into Abigail’s belly before she could strike the naughtiness from her head. What was wrong with her? Daydreaming about a guy like Leif? He was too different, too earthy and holistic and—
And standing there with the best smile in three parishes. He had a slight dimple in his left cheek and eyes the color of a fall sky. His jaw had a blockish quality while his lips were sensuous. How Abigail knew they were sensuous, she wasn’t sure, but she was certain he could kiss her up one side of a wall and down the other…and make her beg for more.
Poor Abigail. The managing sister of the Beauchamp clan needs to chill. So I gave her the best thing an uptight, lonely woman needs—a laid-back, sexy Norse god. Leif’s not your typical hero. He’s vegan, plays the ukulele and wears natural-fiber clothing. He’s a hippie…but a really fine one. And exactly what the buttoned-up PTA president needs to balance out her life.
Leif has come to Magnolia Bend with one purpose in mind—find his real father and clear his mother’s name. He doesn’t plan on breaking through the prickly Abigail’s defenses or on falling in love with the passionate creature beneath the sweater sets. But when did fate ever care about plans?
Toss in a rebellious twelve-year-old, an ex-husband looking for redemption and the droll Hilda Brunet, and you have a story worth taking the day off for. So grab a glass of sweet tea and a couple of hours to fall in love with Sweet Talking Man.
